On Thursday, April 22, 1999 (1-5 PM) at the Beckman Institute
for Advanced Science and Technology, the Artificial Neural Networks and
Computational Brain Theory (ANNCBT) group and the Illinois Working Group
on Genetic and Evolutionary Computation (IWGGEC) held their first joint
workshop, "Adaptive Computation at UIUC":

http://anncbt.ai.uiuc.edu/workshop.html

This campus-wide workshop surveyed recent and continuing research
on artificial neural networks, genetic and evolutionary computation,
probabilistic reasoning (Bayesian networks and Bayesian inference),
intelligent agents, distributed artificial intelligence, hybrid models,
neuroscience, and cognitive science. Applications and demos were
presented in the areas of machine learning, data mining and knowledge
discovery in databases (KDD), optimization, and control.

Some 80 faculty and graduate students attended, with 30 of them
presenting short (3-10 minute) research synopses and demos during the
half-day event. All of the abstracts, and some of the collected slides
and related papers, are now archived online at:

If any particular research projects interest you, please send
mail to jointworkshop@ncsa.uiuc.edu and we will put you in touch with the
author(s).

Cheers,
William Hsu
